What the fee covers

  • Fees include 18% GST and are the final amount; no extra charge applies through the Goethe webshop.
  • B1, B2, C1 and C2 are modular. A single module costs a quarter of the full fee, so you can resit just one part.
  • The fee is due at registration and is non-refundable and non-transferable once paid.
  • B1 and C1 figures are the established Goethe-Institut India schedule; the live booking page returned no dates at capture on 2 Jun 2026, so these two are cross-checked against multiple India sources rather than read live. A1, A2, B2 and C2 were read from goethe.de the same day.
